CEOAFRICA news desk gathered that the 36-year-old Benjamin was said to have just finished the excretion of heroin he ingested but had again tested positive for narcotic ingestion during the inward screening of passengers on an Etihad flight from Pakistan last weekend.

According to the report, the accused was first arrested in August 2009 with 1.796kg of cocaine on his way from Brazil and charged to court but later given bail, and was again re-arrested for importing 1.820kg of heroin on his way from Pakistan.

However Nnaemeka who was re-arrested for testing positive for drug was said to have confessed that he went back to drug trafficking because of unemployment.
